"Participants will need to complete a binding job search agreement and must be willing to relocate for a job if they reside outside of selected cities."

Really? So basically you have no choice but to relocate if they can't place you in a job where you live.

Also, they never say what type of programming job they can give or if you have a choice on accepting the job or not. what if you graduate and they get you a job across the country that paying $50K a year? do you have to accept it or pay the tuition fee?

also the curriculum posted on the site, isn't that detailed on what you will learn.

I really like their concept, and believe this is the direction non-free education should move toward (satisfying the goals of both the provider and most students). I hope that they are so confident in their program that the answers to your questions will lean much more toward giving the job seeker the freedom to choose what is best for him/herself.

So don't sign up. For some this is the golden ticket into the middle class, and worth the price.

I'm guessing its really a trainer/recruiter for a contracting firm. But so what? That's a great first job for a graduate - lots of experience quickly.

Therein lies the catch, I think. It's not the golden ticket people want to believe it is... but telling people that the offer of their dreams is a sham is a losing proposition.

middle class is all relative to salary and location. if you're making $50K a year and living somewhere in North Dakota, then yes, you're probably well above middle class. But making $50K and living in LA, well, you're in poverty.

Somebody in Africa would have a different opinion of poverty.
